Emmylou Lyrics

Lyric discussion by aremac 

Cover art for Emmylou lyrics by Vance Joy

I think he's talking to his little daughter. He's telling her that's it's ok to be scared, that he's there now. He tells her over and over how much he loves her and how much she means to him. She wears her socks to bed just like he does, and he notices that and it makes him love her even more, to see how they are the same.
